Packers: Why didn't team alter Rodgers' contract to create cap space?
Indeed, while leaving Rodgers’ contract as is, with him having been paid a $6.8 million roster bonus earlier this month and set to earn a $14.7 million base salary in 2021, the Packers restructured a host of other players’ deals to create cap room, including those of left tackle David Bakhtiari, right tackle Billy Turner, edge rusher Za’Darius Smith, safety Adrian Amos and kicker Mason Crosby.
